If you recall the Charlotte incident, you remember that Claire and I took Zoe's braids out last week. I was planning to put extensions in Friday and Saturday, but the cousins came over Friday (which was very fun!) and Zoe chose to go with Jason Saturday instead of work on her hair - which was fine with me. I told her that she and I could wake up early Sunday morning and I would do her hair since she wanted something done before church.
I knew we had to do something "quick." But, since I've only done oh . . . you know, one hair style on the girls (extensions) I don't have a lot of options in my back pocket. I was going to divide her hair up in six big sections, put really thick braids in them and then put that in one big braid.
But, that didn't work. Too much hair in each section. So, I divided up the sections some more and put in fairly thick braids/extensions. The only problem was that more sections meant more time. The clock was ticking closer and closer to 8:30a, when we needed to leave for church.
But, thankfully we finished in time. It took me 1.5 hours, which compared to the 7-9 hours for full extensions, seemed "fast!"
Here is the view from the top on Monday.
When I started this 'do' I planned to have it be temporary (last only a few days). But, now I hope we can keep it looking good for a few weeks.
I'm thankful God's grace extends to the details of figuring out what to do with my daughter's hair on a random Sunday morning!
